New submission from laurent chriqui <laur...@singlespot.com>:
When you use strftime with a 2 digit year i.e. '32' it outputs a '32' instead of '0032'. This prevents parsing the string again with the same format through strftime. Exemple: import datetime datetime_format="%Y" date=datetime.date(32,1,1) date_str=datetime.datetime.strftime(date, datetime_format) datetime.datetime.strptime(date_str, datetime_format) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python3.8/_strptime.py", line 568, in _strptime_datetime tt, fraction, gmtoff_fraction = _strptime(data_string, format) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/_strptime.py", line 349, in _strptime raise ValueError("time data %r does not match format %r" % ValueError: time data '32' does not match format '%Y' ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 370971 nosy: laurent chriqui priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: datetime strftime with %Y and 2 digit years type: behavior versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40908> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
